 ### Advanced Fields
 
-* `Err`: Takes an `error` and render it as a string using the `zerolog.ErrorFieldName` field name.
-* `Timestamp`: Insert a timestamp field with `zerolog.TimestampFieldName` field name and formatted using `zerolog.TimeFieldFormat`.
-* `Time`: Adds a field with the time formated with the `zerolog.TimeFieldFormat`.
-* `Dur`: Adds a field with a `time.Duration`.

+* `Time`: Adds a field with time formatted with `zlog.TimeFieldFormat`.
+* `Dur`: Adds a field with `time.Duration`.
 * `Dict`: Adds a sub-key/value as a field of the event.
+* `RawJSON`: Adds a field with an already encoded JSON (`[]byte`)
+* `Hex`: Adds a field with value formatted as a hexadecimal string (`[]byte`)
 * `Interface`: Uses reflection to marshal the type.

 ## Binary Encoding
 
-In addition to the default JSON encoding, `zerolog` can produce binary logs using [CBOR](http://cbor.io) encoding. The choice of encoding can be decided at compile time using the build tag `binary_log` as follows:

 logger.Info().

 ## Problem
 
-When using zerolog it's easy to forget to finish the log event chain by calling a finisher - the `Msg` or `Msgf` function that will schedule the event for writing. The problem with this is that it doesn't warn/panic during compilation and it's not easily found by grep or other general tools. It's even prominently mentioned in the project's readme, that:
+When using zlog it's easy to forget to finish the log event chain by calling a finisher - the `Msg` or `Msgf` function that will schedule the event for writing. The problem with this is that it doesn't warn/panic during compilation and it's not easily found by grep or other general tools. It's even prominently mentioned in the project's readme, that:
 
-> It is very important to note that when using the **zerolog** chaining API, as shown above (`log.Info().Msg("hello world"`), the chain must have either the `Msg` or `Msgf` method call. If you forget to add either of these, the log will not occur and there is no compile time error to alert you of this.

If you forget to add either of these, the log will not occur and there is no compile time error to alert you of this.
 
 ## Solution
 
-A basic linter like this one here that looks for method invocations on `zerolog.Event` can examine the last call in a method call chain and check if it is a finisher, thus pointing out these errors.

+# Zerolog PrettyLog
+
+This is a basic CLI utility that will colorize and pretty print your structured JSON logs.
+
+## Usage
+
+You can compile it or run it directly. The only issue is that by default Zerolog does not output to `stdout`
+but rather to `stderr` so we must pipe `stderr` stream to this CLI tool.
+
+### Linux
+
+These commands will redirect `stderr` to our `prettylog` tool and `stdout` will remain unaffected.
+
+1. Compiled version
+
+```shell
+some_program_with_zerolog 2> >(prettylog)
+```
+
+2. Run it directly with `go run`
+
+```shell
+some_program_with_zerolog 2> >(go run cmd/prettylog/prettylog.go)
+```
+
+### Windows
+
+These commands will redirect `stderr` to `stdout` and then pipe it to our `prettylog` tool.
+
+1. Compiled version

+```shell
+some_program_with_zerolog 2>&1 | prettylog
